Thanks for letting me know. You know, I actually checked your blog to see if you'd posted anything about it, and was surprised to see that you hadn't. Guess it's not really news, but why is it being spread all over the place right now like it is news? Hmmmm. Will have to revise the post, although everything else I wrote I'd absolutely stand by. Thank you for keeping me honest and up to date! Ha! Thanks for letting me know.

I have something good to say. THIS is starting to pick up in the general population. People who really don't care are hearing about the logistics of surgical birth and seeing the other side. It hopefully will garner some force and get the numbers down (okay that was me going off on a flight of fancy). I was witness, either in person or by being a friend listening, to three necessary c/s's in 2006. Three needed c/s's. I'm still a little shocked by it.
